1 Samuel 1:1-14

1:1

Now there was a certain
<0259>

man
<0376>

of Ramathaimzophim
<07436>_,

of mount
<02022>

Ephraim
<0669>_,

and his name
<08034>

[was] Elkanah
<0511>_,

the son
<01121>

of Jeroham
<03395>_,

the son
<01121>

of Elihu
<0453>_,

the son
<01121>

of Tohu
<08459>_,

the son
<01121>

of Zuph
<06689>_,

an Ephrathite
<0673>_:

1:2

And he had two
<08147>

wives
<0802>_;

the name
<08034>

of the one
<0259>

[was] Hannah
<02584>_,

and the name
<08034>

of the other
<08145>

Peninnah
<06444>_:

and Peninnah
<06444>

had children
<03206>_,

but Hannah
<02584>

had no children
<03206>_.

1:3

And this
<01931>

man
<0376>

went up
<05927> (8804)

out of his city
<05892>

yearly
<03117> <03117>

to worship
<07812> (8692)

and to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

unto the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

in Shiloh
<07887>_.

And the two
<08147>

sons
<01121>

of Eli
<05941>_,

Hophni
<02652>

and Phinehas
<06372>_,

the priests
<03548>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

[were] there. {yearly: Heb. from year to year}

1:4

And when the time
<03117>

was that Elkanah
<0511>

offered
<02076> (8799)_,

he gave
<05414> (8804)

to Peninnah
<06444>

his wife
<0802>_,

and to all her sons
<01121>

and her daughters
<01323>_,

portions
<04490>_:

1:5

But unto Hannah
<02584>

he gave
<05414> (8799)

a
<0259>

worthy
<0639>

portion
<04490>_;

for he loved
<0157> (8804)

Hannah
<02584>_:

but the LORD
<03068>

had shut up
<05462> (8804)

her womb
<07358>_.

{worthy: or, double}

1:6

And her adversary
<06869>

also provoked
<03707> (8765)

her sore
<03708>_,

for to make her fret
<07481> (8687)_,

because the LORD
<03068>

had shut
<05462> (8804)

up
<01157>

her womb
<07358>_.

{provoked: Heb. angered}

1:7

And [as] he did
<06213> (8799)

so year
<08141>

by year
<08141>_,

when
<01767>

she went up
<05927> (8800)

to the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

so she provoked
<03707> (8686)

her; therefore she wept
<01058> (8799)_,

and did not eat
<0398> (8799)_.

{when...: or, from the time that she, etc: Heb. from her going up}

1:8

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Elkanah
<0511>

her husband
<0376>

to her, Hannah
<02584>_,

why weepest
<01058> (8799)

thou? and why eatest
<0398> (8799)

thou not? and why is thy heart
<03824>

grieved
<03415> (8799)_?

[am] not I better
<02896>

to thee than ten
<06235>

sons
<01121>_?

1:9

So Hannah
<02584>

rose up
<06965> (8799)

after
<0310>

they had eaten
<0398> (8800)

in Shiloh
<07887>_,

and after
<0310>

they had drunk
<08354> (8800)_.

Now Eli
<05941>

the priest
<03548>

sat
<03427> (8802)

upon a seat
<03678>

by a post
<04201>

of the temple
<01964>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

1:10

And she [was] in bitterness
<04751>

of soul
<05315>_,

and prayed
<06419> (8691)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)

sore
<01058> (8800)_.

{in...: Heb. bitter of soul}

1:11

And she vowed
<05087> (8799)

a vow
<05088>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

O LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

if thou wilt indeed
<07200> (8800)

look
<07200> (8799)

on the affliction
<06040>

of thine handmaid
<0519>_,

and remember
<02142> (8804)

me, and not forget
<07911> (8799)

thine handmaid
<0519>_,

but wilt give
<05414> (8804)

unto thine handmaid
<0519>

a man
<0582>

child
<02233>_,

then I will give
<05414> (8804)

him unto the LORD
<03068>

all the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>_,

and there shall no razor
<04177>

come
<05927> (8799)

upon his head
<07218>_.

{a man...: Heb. seed of men}

1:12

And it came to pass, as she continued
<07235> (8689)

praying
<06419> (8692)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

that Eli
<05941>

marked
<08104> (8802)

her mouth
<06310>_.

{continued...: Heb. multiplied to pray}

1:13

Now Hannah
<02584>_,

she spake
<01696> (8764)

in her heart
<03820>_;

only her lips
<08193>

moved
<05128> (8801)_,

but her voice
<06963>

was not heard
<08085> (8735)_:

therefore Eli
<05941>

thought
<02803> (8799)

she had been drunken
<07910>_.

1:14

And Eli
<05941>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken
<07937> (8691)_?

put away
<05493> (8685)

thy wine
<03196>

from thee.
